Story

Symbol of strength

Seventh in line after the snake, the horse is said to bestow independence, charisma, and a sense of adventure on those born under its influence in 2026, 2014, 2002, 1990 and every 12th preceding year. Being passionate and spirited, they are gifted with natural charm and an ability to inspire others.

Lunar horse design

This carefully crafted pure silver rectangular coin features a minted impression of a lunar horse. The creature appears with an elegant mane with raised hooves. Included in the design is the inscription ‘YEAR OF THE HORSE’, the 2026 year-date and The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ Mintmark. The coin's obverse features the Dan Thorne effigy of His Majesty King Charles III, along with the weight, fineness, and monetary denomination.

Authentication feature
